Default Fractured Hip Hop

What is this? It's just my name for the kind of hip hop music I'd like to hear, stuff with kind of an experimental or off-kilter bent. I listen to some that I'd describe this way, but wish I knew of more. So here's a place for me, and hopefully, other people to post about weird hip hop they love.

First up...



Billy Woods
See that tiny, inscrutable photo of him above? That's the kind of thing you find when you look up this guy and it's a pretty good summation of his music: distant, mysterious, abstract. A lot of people here already are familiar with him but I thought he was worth starting this thing with.

Some samples:

Will be keeping an eye on this thread. Can't do a Billy Woods mention without a shoutout to Armand Hammer, who I like better tbh. Woods joins Elucid and makes some great ****.

probably more similar to death grips (tho I think theyre much more interesting) but still. they had one of my favorite hip hop albums of 2014, Nausea. could see some on mb digging them at the very least.

Also...



K-the-I???
One of my favorite musical discoveries of the past decade or so. His approach to music is like a whirling vortex of sounds and ideas. It's hard to even imagine what the process is that goes into making music that sounds like this. I love it.

Some samples:

^Nausea is a great record, I was just listening to that today actually.

EDIT: K-the-I??? rules as well for obvious reasons.

Ever listen to Ratking? I really like the song "Protein" it's got some choppy (in a good way) beats, but there was no video

Both of those are great! I'll definitely be checking more.

I have that album but I don't think I've listened all the way through yet. Seems good though.

I co-sign everything posted so far. I'll post some early examples on the more hardcore side of glitchy off-kilter Hip Hop.

The Beatnigs:



Perhaps THE FIRST Industrial Hip Hop album ever.

Techno Animal:



This group were one of the first exponents of this type of production, and they do it as well as anyone.

Consolidated:



Okay maybe this isn't too hardcore, but it was released in 1989, which is pretty swell.

2nd Gen:



Surprised nobody mentioned Dälek already, but I suppose they are a given at this point.

The Bug:



Instrumental, but the same type of vibe as other industrial Hip Hop artists.

Ice:



Basically Techno Animal members, and EL-P. Could it go wrong?

I'll post more later.

Two great german rappers. Not sure how it sounds if you don't know German though, the best part are the lyrics.



2h company, a russian group. Same as above. No idea how it sounds, if you can't understand it.



Babel Fishh



Deep Puddle Dynamics
